Importer Notes: Husband and wife team, Stéphane and Dana Vivier are able to blend their respect for tradition with their enthusiasm for emerging wine growing regions, and their love of Pinot Noir.  Stéphane grew up in Burgundy and was the wine maker for Hyde de Villain, the collaboration of Aubert de Villain from Domaine de la Romanee Conti and Larry Hyde from Hyde Vineyards, for 19 vintages.

The 2022 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard has intense, layered aromas of peach, green herbs, spice and petrichor. The palate is perfumed and nuanced, its concentrated, spicy flavors structured by tangy acidity, and it has a long, elegant finish. - 93 points, The Wine Advocate (Erin Brooks)
